West Chicago City Museum is located in historic downtown West Chicago.
We are easily accessible via the Interstate system and Illinois Route 59, which is located just to the east of downtown.
Free 2-hour street parking is available along Main Street.
Alternate free parking can be found along Turner Court (4-hour street parking) or in the parking lot alongside Turner Court. From these parking locations, visitors can take sidewalk ramps to Main Street or ascend the stairs for a more direct route.
We always have fun things for kids to do, too! A cozy place to read and play, a train table, hands-on activities, and a coloring area make City Museum a great place for kids.
